A few research studies have suggested that when an infant spends more than 20 hours a week in day care, the child is at risk of becoming insecurely attached. Yet we know that for infants whose parent(s) work they are often in daycare more than 40 hours a week. So if there is truth in this research then many of our children are at risk for developing attachment problems.

I agree with the implications of the studies on the impact of infants spending a lot of time in day care. Infants require to spend more time with their parents and not at daycares as this may result into attachment issues and problems that may have serious implications on their development in the future. To avoid this, parents must ensure that their children do not spend more than twenty hours a week in a day care facility.
There are several benefits that are associated with a child being enrolled to a day care facility.
